Andy Spivey’s West Pier made history as they made it through to their first County Cup final after beating rivals Edgehill 3-2 at Staxton in their North Riding County FA Saturday Challenge Cup semi-final.

Pier went into the game seeking revenge after they were comfortably beaten 4-1 by their opponents in the league just weeks ago, and they had to come from behind in this crunch cup clash as well.

Steve Clegg’s Edgehill were ahead after 11 minutes when Dean Craig’s free-kick found centre-back Danny White to tap in for 1-0.

The away side were in front just two minutes later when another Barker corner was finished off, this time midfielder Danny Cooper nodded in for 2-1.

The game’s only controversial moment came when Pier striker Gareth Sygrove and Edgehill’s Dean Craig came together head-to-head and Sygrove was shown a yellow card, much to the annoyance of Edgehill boss Clegg.
